Amazon Kindle Fire

   Kindle Fire is the first Android tablet made by Amazon. This has a 7 inches IPS LCD (1024 x 600 pixels) gorilla glass multi-touch screen with anti-reflection which should be a great advantage for using it outdoors. The device is thinner than Nook Color and has a dual core Texas Instruments OMAP processor.

   The battery gives an 8 hours reading or 7.5 hours video playback performance. The internal memory is only 8 GB size but you should not worry as Amazon offers free cloud storage for all their content. In terms of connectivity the Fire has Wi-Fi b/g/n, micro-USB and 3.5 mm audio jack.

   Other than that Amazon Kindle Fire offers access to more than 100,000 movies and TV shows available for streaming and download through Instant Video application, access to over 17,000,000 songs through Amazon MP3, access to over 1,000,000 of their books and many more like magazines, newspapers, games. The web browser Amazon Silk is accelerated by the cloud service which leads to high performance for web navigation.

   The price of Amazon Kindle Fire is 199 USD which is an absolutely fair one for this type of device and the other manufactures should check and learn to adjust their prices policies.

Amazon Kindle & Kindle Touch

  Amazon have announced their new e-Reader products Today from the popular Kindle series which are smaller, lighter and more affordable. The Kindle e-Reader (picture above) is the most compact, lightest and cheapest from Amazon. It has an advanced 6 inches e-ink display and can turn the pages 10 times faster or download these through wi-fi connection. The QWERTY keyboard is no longer present and the price starts at 79 USD.

   The Kindle Touch has an e-ink multi-touch screen (the same 6 inches size) which increases the battery life. This version supports text-to-speech and mp3 files for audio books - all can be downloaded through the wireless connection. Kindle Touch has a new feature named X-Ray as lets customers see all passages across a book that mentions ideas, fictional characters, historical figures, places, topics as well as detailed descriptions from Wikipedia, Amazon encyclopedia with a single tap. The price for this starts at 99 USD. 

There is a 3G version which can offer free 3G connectivity but the price starts at 149 USD.

   I believe the new Kindles will have a real success in e-Readers market, the same as iPad did in the tablets market.
